A Must-Visit: Qiandao Lake!

The warm afternoon sunlight on a clear day is simply delightful. Winter is the off-season at Qiandao Lake, so there are fewer people wherever you go, making the experience truly exceptional. 👍 🌳 Qiandao Lake Botanical Garden Once a super niche lakeside park, it has only gained popularity in recent months. The last time I visited, it was nearly 40°C🔥—lush green grass but unbearably hot. This time, the temperature was just right. Although there were no flowers and the grass had turned yellow, the walk was very relaxing, with almost no tourists around. 🎫 Entry fee: 30 RMB/person 🛺 Sightseeing car: 10 RMB round trip (During this season, you can also walk in. The scenery along the way is beautiful, and it only takes a few minutes.) 💡 Xianshan (Intercontinental) Lighthouse I’ve always wondered why this lighthouse isn’t as popular as the one at the Beer Town! It’s clearly more beautiful here—fewer props for photo ops and fewer people. Last year, I visited on a cloudy day and didn’t get good photos, but this time, I finally captured some satisfying shots. 📸 💡 Beer Town Lighthouse I revisited to make up for the cloudy day photos from before! However, it has now been converted into a museum, and the aerial view is a bit cluttered. If you want to capture the blue lake surface, remember to visit in the morning! In the afternoon, it’s backlit, and the sunset views in the evening are stunning. 🌅 📍 Qiandao Lake Lighthouse
